Maths problem 2

Fakapaheke ( The Slide )

 

I was retelling the story fakapaheke. This is a dual-language book but the teacher only read the Tongan story. It was really fun listening to and reading the Tongan story. We were able to discuss the story using the pictures and making connections with something that we know and listening and seeing words that we hear at home but finally can see the words. Love listening to and reading the Tongan story.

Fakapaheke

One day there was a young little boy named Alo. Alo and his family were at the park and Alo in the wheelchair wanted to go and play but Alo’s dad promised Alo to stay a bit and watch the children play around the playground.

After a while, Alo asked dad if Alo could go on the slide right beside the sandpit where no children were there. The slide was so bright that the color was silver and shiny, ALo wanted to show dad that he could do it, Alo

was too nervous to go on the silver and shiny slide, so Alo grabbed the corner of the slide to get up away from the wheelchair to make sure that he won’t need any help from anyone even his parents.

So Alo climbed up to the shiny slide he saw and slid down to the ground on his back. Alo asked dad for help when he was on the bottom of the slide because he wanted to go back up again. Dad was so impressed with

Alo going up and down the slide, Also Alo’s brother semi wanted to join going down the slide so Alo and Semi went up and down together on the shiny slide. Alo and family was so happy and dad was so proud of Alo being able to go on the slide by himself 

It doesn’t matter if he is in a wheelchair he still can play without any help when he is disabled. This book teaches us to look after everyone no matter what. It is open that we are being inclusive whether they are in a wheelchair or not.

My Pepeha

  

My Way

 I read Aroha's Ways then rewrite the story using my own words describing how I feel when I am happy and when I am sad.

 

Ko ha taʻahine au ʻoku ou saiʻia ke ʻalu ʻo fakatau he fakaʻosinga ʻo e

uike mo e ʻaho maloloo kotoa pe. ʻOku ou hoko foki ko ha taha fiefia, faitotonu,

ʻofa, mo tokoni.

How do you show happiness??

I show happiness by smiling every day, coming into the class in a beautiful mood, playing with other students when they don’t have any friends so that I get to know them more. Even though I don’t know them I just approach them so they have someone to play with.

‘Okú ke fakahaaʻi fēfē ʻa e mamahí??

ʻOku ou fakahaaʻi ʻeku loto mamahi ʻi heʻeku haʻu ki he kalasí ʻi ha faʻahinga ongo ʻoku ʻikai leleí, ʻo ʻikai lava ke vaʻinga mo ha taha, tangutu toko taha ʻi tuʻa pe ʻi loto, ongoʻi taʻelata, loto mamahi, pea mo tuenoa ʻiate au pē.

When Langiola is happy:

She shows loving and caring attributes

Always say mālō ē lelei with a big smile on her pretty face

ʻI he taimi ʻoku loto mamahi ai Langiola:

ʻOku ne ongoʻi loto mamahi

ʻOkú ne ongoʻi loto mamahi

ʻOku ne ongoʻi mafasia

ʻOkú ne ongoʻi loto mamahi

ʻOku ne fakahaaʻi ha ongo kovi ʻaupito 

ʻOku ne fakahaaʻi ha ʻulungaanga kovi 

ʻOku ne fakahaaʻi ʻoku ʻikai fie vaʻinga ha taha mo ia

When Langiola is confident:

She takes a deep breathe in and out and then

She feels calm to speak in front of everyone

And she feels relaxed.
